Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the CG652U050V3C is determined by strict alignment of the following critical parameters:

Electrical Parameters (Must Match):

  • Capacitance: 6500 µF
  • Voltage Rating: 50 V
  • Tolerance: -10%, +75%
  • Operating Temperature Range: -40°C ~ 85°C
  • Lifetime: 2000 Hrs @ 85°C
  • Polarization: Polar

Mechanical Parameters (Must Match):

  • Package Type: Radial, Can - Screw Terminals
  • Mounting Type: Chassis Mount
  • Physical Dimensions: 2.000" Dia (50.80mm), Height 3.125" (79.38mm)

Compliance Parameters (Must Match):

  • RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant
  • Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited)

The CGS652U050V3C qualifies as a parametric equivalent because it maintains identical values across all critical electrical, mechanical, and compliance parameters. Variations in ESR (Equivalent Series Resistance) and ripple current ratings do not disqualify substitution when the primary functional requirements remain within specification.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the CG652U050V3C and CGS652U050V3C maintain Active product status from Cornell Dubilier Electronics, ensuring continued manufacturing support and supply chain availability. Both components achieve full ROHS3 compliance and carry REACH unaffected designation, meeting regulatory requirements for industrial and commercial applications.

The CGS652U050V3C presents higher inventory availability (1200 pieces in stock versus 855 pieces), supporting procurement flexibility. The electrical performance differential—reflected in ESR and ripple current specifications—does not alter the fundamental substitution relationship when circuit designs accommodate the specified parameter ranges.

Selection between these parts should be based on:

  1. Inventory Requirements: CGS652U050V3C offers greater stock depth
  2. Performance Margin: Applications with strict ripple current or ESR constraints may require evaluation of the specific performance differential
  3. Supply Chain Continuity: Both parts maintain Active status with equivalent compliance certifications

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can CGS652U050V3C replace CG652U050V3C in existing designs?

A: Yes. The CGS652U050V3C qualifies as a parametric equivalent. All critical electrical specifications (capacitance, voltage rating, tolerance, temperature range, lifetime) and mechanical parameters (package type, dimensions, mounting configuration) are identical. Both components are ROHS3 compliant with matching moisture sensitivity ratings.

Q: What is the difference between CG652U050V3C and CGS652U050V3C?

A: The primary differences are ESR and ripple current ratings. The CG652U050V3C exhibits 17 mOhm ESR at 120 Hz with 9.6 A ripple current at 120 Hz. The CGS652U050V3C exhibits 25 mOhm ESR at 120 Hz with 7.9 A ripple current at 120 Hz. All other specifications remain identical.

Q: Are the physical dimensions identical?

A: Yes. Both components share identical dimensions: 2.000" diameter (50.80mm) and 3.125" maximum seated height (79.38mm). Screw terminal spacing and chassis mount configuration are identical, enabling direct mechanical interchange.

Q: Do both parts meet the same compliance standards?

A: Yes. Both CG652U050V3C and CGS652U050V3C are ROHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected, and carry Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited). Both are classified under ECCN EAR99 and HTSUS 8532.22.0055.

Q: Which part should be selected for new designs?

A: Selection depends on application requirements and supply availability. The CGS652U050V3C offers higher inventory levels. For applications where ESR or ripple current performance is critical, verify that the CGS652U050V3C specifications remain within design margins before implementation.
